Testimonials

rradar has been a part of the Rural Protect product since its inception and we are very pleased to also be working with HB Underwriting on their new Rural Protect Elements proposition. With farming businesses across the UK working with rradar’s lawyers and using our digital tools, they are less likely to face a claim. This demonstrates the importance of having the right knowledge and advice available up front. Like HB Underwriting, we believe smaller rural businesses can benefit from the services we provide through the policy. We are excited to see how Rural Protect Elements can help these businesses grow and safeguard their future.

Andrew Cameron - Chief Legal Officer, rradar

We have been using the Rural Protect policy at H&H Insurance Brokers for a number of years, it has a broad span of cover filling many of the gaps that are prevalent within the rural insurance market. I can confidently offer this product to my clients, as I know it gives them the protection that they need, which has often been overlooked by others. We find that Rural Protect policy makes our offering unique, and can make the difference in obtaining the client's business or not.

Philip Pagin - Rural Sales Manager, H&H Insurance Brokers

We were one of the first businesses to offer Rural Protect to our clients and being involved from the beginning has allowed us to see first-hand how the cover can benefit our clients. Farmers need expert and quality legal defence due to the amount of regulators they could face. We would highly recommend the policy and the excellent service the team at HB Underwriting team provide.

Debbie Airey - Managing Director, Country & Commercial Insurance Brokers

We offer Rural Protect to all our farming and agricultural clients, put simply it is the best management liability product in the market. It connects our clients to legal support when they need it most and guides them through the most difficult times when quality defence is of utmost importance. Every farm should have one of these policies, it’s a no brainer! The training and ongoing support provided by Rob, Laura and Kayleigh at HB Underwriting has been excellent.

Alan Tate-Smith - Agricultural Insurance Specialist, BKG West Ltd

As an agricultural specialist broker, we saw how Rural Protect stood aside from the usual legal expenses and management liability policies. It has proved to be a lifeline for many of our clients. The team at HB underwriting are fantastic to deal with, efficient and knowledgeable. The online quote system is simple, and any referrals are turned around quickly. The expert advice received from the nominated solicitors rradar is second to none.

Bryan Brown - Sales Manager, Denis O Brown Insurance Brokers

Rural Protect forms an integral part of our offering to farming and agricultural businesses. They provide our clients with access to expert legal support when they need it most. The service and knowledge offered by HB Underwriting and rradar is exceptional.

James Halls - Senior Client Relationship Manager, Saffron Insurance

Mole Insurance Services have offered the Rural Protect product to our farming clients and worked with HB Underwriting for just over 18 months. We have found the policy coverage and service and legal support to be excellent, the management liability policy is something we discuss with every client to ensure they have appropriate protection in place. We would have no hesitation in recommending Rural Protect and HB Underwriting.
